TL;DR (AI)

• This bill prevents the Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture from prohibiting the use of lead ammunition or tackle on federal lands and waters used for hunting or fishing.
• An exception to this prohibition allows for restrictions on lead ammunition or tackle if a wildlife population decline is primarily caused by lead, and the restriction aligns with state law or is approved by the state's wildlife department.
• The Secretaries must provide public notice and justification before implementing any prohibition or regulation related to lead ammunition or tackle under the exception.
